Gorbachev

1. In short, "da man"

2. The man who aided the dilapidated, mud-splattered Soviet people in obtaining the freedom they desired by liberalizing the Soviet system in unprecendened ways.

If it weren't for Gorbachev, we'd still be wearing Adias sweatpants and sandals with socks.....

oh wait...

ennui

A sense of apathy and lassitude brought about by either societal or personal stagnation. Akin to languor, but more closely tied to existentialism and post-war Europe.

As seen in the film L'Avventura, by Michelangelo Antonioni. As characterized in post-war European literature.

belijvolk

white wolf (in Russian, transliterated from the Cyrillic). A word sometimes used in the Russian-American community of NYC to refer to gaudy taste and watered down, filtered-through ideas, notions, and actions stemming therefrom.

Misha- Kolya, have you seen the new Bloomingdales display on 59th?

Kolya - Yea..it was MAD belijvolk, why?

Misha - I thought so too. It's dreary and tasteless.

Kolya - Tell me about it...

The Revolution

1. The Bolshevik Revolution of 1917

2. The phantom changes that will come about in the near-to-distant future; often uttered with bewildered, watery eyes gazing into a bleak distance, typically an overcast, smog-ridden urban skyline.

We shall elect a gay woman president....after the revolution.
